The leadership of college football has always and will always do the wrong thing until forced to do otherwise. It's kind of remarkable how people come and people go, but they always side with stupid. It took decades to make these changes: Crown a champion after bowl games Allow TV networks to decide during the season which games to televise (it was previously decided before the season) Create a 1-vs-2 natty Allow players to be compensated for their labor Allow players to transfer without sitting out (how many players never made it to the NFL because they never got their chance?) Create a playoff system Here's all the obvious things the need to fix: Eliminate worthless cupcake games (it'd be incredibly easy to compensate smaller schools with the additional TV money better matchups would bring) Revert to 2-minute tv timeouts (not even the for-profit NFL does 3 minute commercial breaks) Eliminate auto bids (G5 has been completely raided of both schools and players yet we still romanticize the anecdotal exceptions from the distant past) Create a relegation system so smaller schools can actually have a chance to build legitimate programs Finish the season BEFORE the portal / coaching changes Eliminate unlimited transfers Set boundaries around NIL and individual donors Only an act of Congress could save college football.

Nashville, TN. Wish I lived back in Austin (spent 18 great years there) or farther west. Nashville sucks.
